Brian Austin Green is clapping back at claims he’s a “bad father” after denying his ex-wife, Megan Fox, “forced” their sons to wear “girls’ clothes.”
When an Instagram user insulted Green’s parenting in a comment, the “Beverly Hills, 90210” star wrote on his Story that “people like this have lost their minds.”
Green, 49, asked online trolls Thursday to “do better as a society” for “future generations” by refraining from sending him hateful messages.
“Why anyone thinks it’s morally okay to attack people like this that they have never even met is crazy,” he noted in the social media upload.
The actor came to Fox’s defense Saturday after former Republican congressional candidate Robby Starbuck made “bogus” allegations about witnessing the former couple’s children, Noah, 10, Bodhi, 9, and Journey, 6, having a “full on breakdown” because of their clothing.
“There are only a few people in their world that can actually verify wether [sic] or not a story like this is true and I can tell you with absolute certainty it is not,” Green told TMZ.
“This person trying to claim this is true is a perfect example of someone with selfish motives that does not care about negatively affecting a parent child relationship,” he continued.
Fox, 37, responded later that same day, telling Starbuck that he “f–ked with the wrong witch.”
In a lengthy Instagram post, the “Transformers” star wrote, “irregardless of how desperate you may become at any given time to acquire wealth, power, success, or fame – never use children as leverage or social currency. especially under malevolent and erroneous pretense.”
She concluded by calling the former politician an “insecure, narcissistic, impotent, little” man.
The actress and Green, who were married from 2010 to 2021, have both addressed their sons’ clothing choices in the past.
In April 2022, Fox admitted to Glamour UK that she had “a lot of worries” about Noah being bullied at school for wearing dresses.
As for Green, the “Anger Management” alum clarified five years prior that he did not “care” about people who disagreed with his eldest child’s outfits.
“If he wants to wear it, then he wears it. Dresses or goggles or slippers or whatever,” Green, who is also the father of sons Kassius, 21, and Zane, 11 months, told Hollywood Pipeline at the time. “It’s his life. … He’s not harming anyone wearing a dress.”
